Hint: 
Incorrect polarity of the binary output connection may cause a damage of the binary outputs. 
 
Binary inputs on IS-BIN16/8 
There are two groups of eight Binary inputs BI1 to BI8 and BI9 to BI16. Each group has a separate Common 
terminal COM1 and COM2. The Common terminal can be connected to positive or negative pole – see 
following drawing. Binary inputs are galvanically separated from IS-BIN16/8 power supply.  
 
A Binary inputs Common terminal is connected to 
positive supply terminal, Binary inputs contacts are 
closed to negative supply terminals.

Input voltage range for opened contact is from 8 VDC to Power supply VDC. Input voltage range for closed 
contact is from 0 to 2 VDC. Voltage level is defined between Binary input and Binary input COM terminal and 
does not depend on “positive” or “negative” connection. 
 
Hint: 
It is recommended to separate inputs by diodes when two or more binary inputs are connected in parallel to 
avoid wrong input activation when one controller is switched off.
